How many Philly-area residents could lose food stamp benefits?

The U.S. House of Representatives is slated to vote this afternoon on significant cuts to food stamps.

The proposed $4 billion in cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program would reduce the number of people eligible to receive aid.

If the House approves the cuts, how many residents in southeastern Pennsylvania and South Jersey would no longer receive food stamp benefits?

The Atlantic Wire calculated what the impact of the cuts might be in each congressional district. In all, about 83,100 people in the greater region could lose benefits, according to the website's estimates.

Here are approximations of how many people could lose their food stamp eligibility under the cuts, which the site calculated using food-stamp-enrollment rates and poverty levels for 2011:

1st District (Delaware and Philadelphia counties): 15,000 people

2nd District (Montgomery and Philadelphia counties): 17,000 people
